About Admiralty Small Craft Charts

Admiralty Small Craft Charts are produced by the United Kingdom Hydrographic Office (UKHO) for recreational sailors and small commercial vessels. They cover popular cruising areas, harbours and coastal waters at scales suited to inshore navigation. Each chart is printed on demand from the UKHO's latest digital files with all corrections applied up to the date of printing. MCA approved for coded vessels and fishing vessels under 24m LOA.

Each folio has an accompanying PDF supplement containing tidal stream (diamond) tables, secondary port differences, tidal curves, Coastguard contact information and local navigation notes. We'll send you a link when your chart ships.

Good to Know

If you haven't bought Admiralty Small Craft Charts since 2022, a few things have changed. Charts are no longer supplied in plastic wallets and supporting data is now in PDF format. The printed chart area is A2 (594 x 420 mm) but the sheet is slightly larger (715 x 535 mm), leaving a border of about 12 cm on each side. You may want to trim the sheet depending on how you store your charts.

Because these charts are printed to order, they can't be restocked or resold once printed. Please make sure you're happy with the coverage before ordering. If you're not sure which charts you need, ask us first and we'll help you put together the right set.

There are a few price points where it's actually cheaper to buy more charts. We wrote an article explaining how the discount tiers work.

Framing and Wall Display

These are navigation charts and are not sold as fine art prints, but a framed chart makes a handsome addition to any wall (or bulkhead). Each chart carries an official agent's stamp and authentication data in the margin. Charts are shipped rolled in a tube with no folds, and we recommend waiting to receive yours before ordering a frame as exact dimensions can vary slightly.

The chart paper is lighter weight than it used to be, and there is a chance of minor creasing around the edges if the chart moves in the tube during transit. This usually flattens out easily and falls within the wide white border that surrounds the printed area.

Shipping

Admiralty charts are printed on demand by an official UKHO distributor. Each chart is printed, trimmed, quality checked, stamped and labelled individually. Please check for handling time messages during ordering. If you're in a hurry, get in touch and we'll do our best to help.

Charts ship rolled in a cardboard tube (Royal Mail) or a long rectangular box (DPD). The DPD box carries a slightly higher risk of minor creasing, which usually flattens out under some heavy books.
